My point was, if he's been in college 10 years, mooching off his parents, and is now finally a Senior, he is a slacker.

Uh no, college students were NEVER "counted" because pollsters can't call dorm phones as far as I know. And the ones that live off-campus, in my experience, tend to be more Republican anyway.

But, I don't know many young cell-users... young people talk a lot, and cells cost a lot. On the other hand, my parents and grandma and I all are cell-only... and we're all Bush-only. It seems to me that travelling businessmen types are far more likely to be cell-only, anyway.

The clue is that cellphone users are a young group. They are somewhat Liberal, but they also somewhat don't vote. They don't even keep up with the news and didn't watch the debates. Their world consists of their quickdial list.
